[PATCH v5 16/16] x86/tdx: Add cmdline option to force use of ioremap_host_shared

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a command line option to force all the enabled drivers to use
shared memory mappings. This will be useful when enabling new drivers
in the confidential guest without making all the required changes to
use shared mappings in it.

Note that this might also allow other non explicitly enabled drivers
to interact with the host, which could cause other security risks.

+			guest, which could cause other security risks. This option
+			will also cause BIOS data structures to be shared with the
